New episodes airing in Ireland

This is not uncommon. I think the UK got brand new episodes of the 200x He-Man series before they aired in the US.

However by the time Cartoon Network USA announce the premiere, the preview images and clips will be pretty much pointless since I expect to see fan made clips from the new eps appear online as RTE continue to air new episodes each weekend and they are getting 2 new eps per week! (and likeky CN USA will only air one per week)

At least the new eps are very close to being broadcast though :slight_smile:

I’m pretty sure the same thing happened with Nick and Avatar the Last Airbender season 3.

Still, come on CN. It’s a matter of time before they get posted online.

I really want to see some screen caps of the new character =(

Well I read the spoilers and if this on the level then I very interested in the upcoming episodes.

All this sounds intresting. Looking forward to it.

Hi there I dont post here to often
but had to respond to this childish post Im from Ireland and I dont drink I find you comment to be very racist.Just cause people are from Ireland you think were drunks and its a kids show so you think all our kids are up at 8 in the morning drunk.For someone of your age to tar an entire nation with your remarks really teaches the younger people on here dont you think

It was clearly a joke. Lighten up, Francis.

CN’s slow turn to airing this episodes will most likely end in me not having watched them on their channel. TCats is the only reason I bother with them anymore. :T

LOL! I’m of Irish and Scottish descent, if that helps. On some sites my sig is even the quote “God invented alcohol to prevent the Irish from taking over the world”. But, like Tygra said, it’s clearly a joke. :wink:

Booyah,i accept that your aim wasn’t to offend purposely the Irish people by cracking this Joke, but you must understand you aren’t surrounded by your close friends who know your good motives and intentions. It’s quite reasonable for a member who isn’t acquainted with you to be affronted by reading this post. Please be very careful in the future with your comments and jokes.

Normally we would delete such a post instantly but i believe everybody understood it wasn’t a racist joke who wanted to insult people.

Still i believe Booyah,you should say sorry to our other member Irish_Legend.

btw…anyone wanna see what the new Monkian (Atticus) looks like?
dude posted a screen shot. Epic Beard. lol

I am very happy they resemble their OS counterpats so well. :slight_smile:

Monkian, err, Atticus… (:eek:) looks great. I’m not sure I like the names, but the designs are faithful enough to the originals. Kaynar looks a bit unstable in that picture, these guys are going to be fun.

I skimmed the spoiler material to avoid totally ruining the new episodes for myself, but I do have a question for anyone who read everything…

It mentioned the lizards running away, did Slithe go with them? I’d hate for Monkian and Jackalman to make their entrance and not have old Slithe pushing them around…

No he didn’t leave. they said Slythe was with Atticus and Kaynar in episode 15

I really wanna watch these episodes. I’ve read the spoilers and it sounds really amazing tbh.

Also the new villians look great! Sorta new at least…

Reading the spoilers doesn’t bother me, I like to see that Tygra and Cheetara are flirting, so cute! And at the same time, (I hate saying this) but I like seeing that Lion-O is not over “it”. Keeps alittle drama and suspense in the love arena for the show. In the end, enough suspense builds up and im sure along comes the love of his life ;).

All in all, its good to see this because if it just all ended right after Tygra and Cheetara kissed, the rest of the show would have been BLAH for me. Just running and fighting battles gets boring if you dont throw in something extra :slight_smile:

XOXO to all TCL peeps!

Irish Joke

I am Irish and I don’t drink and I found nothing wrong with Booyah’s joke…look at the stuff they said in Family Guy and the Simpsons about the Irish LOL.

Name correction btw guys. I’ve been informed Monkian’s name is Addicus, not Atticus.

The new Monkian and Jackalman look RAD. That being said, it is very frustrating/confusing that the show is airing in Ireland and not here in the US and on top of that CN doesn’t say ANYTHING about it anywhere. Seems ridiculous at this point for them to be keeping quiet when people in Ireland are posting pics(which i am VERY GRATEFUL FOR) and posting spoilers(Again grateful for, it keeps me in the loop at least SOMEWHAT :frowning: ) But yea, seems kinda frustrating overall to me.

Thanks for the Monkian & Jackalman pics, they look really similar to their OS counterparts, only more threatening, which is good.

Now, I like their names being changed, but I think then the TCs names should have been as well to not be directly derived from the animal (cat) they aer inspired on. They could have kept some relation to them though. JMO.
